Yesterday, UTG updated you all with news that Lamb of God’s own Randy Blythe returned to the Czech Republic to begin his trial.

No one could expect the events that unfolded after the initial trial began. Lamb Of God drummer Chris Adler ended up testifying in the trial as well. Reports from the courtroom directly from Adler saw, “In court testimony, [Adler] said he did not see anything behind. The injured fan is in his own words learned only at the moment when the singer arrested by the police. He added that the roughness of the band leader at concerts is just a show for the audience, otherwise it is said to be calm, gentle and well-read.”

When frontman Blythe was onstage at the time this event occurred he told the victim (at the time), “I thought he might be dangerous. He was hugging me. [That’s] when I decided to give him clear that the stage is not welcome,’” an article quotes Blythe as saying. “Then he described that while singing, he grabbed the fan’s shirt, knocked him to the ground, knelt beside him, and told him repeatedly and emphatically: ‘Do not go on stage, stop it.”
